Mission

The Mission of the Mt. Helix Park Foundation is to preserve, enhance, enrich, and share the Nature Theatre with our neighbors and friends.

About

The Mount Helix Nature Theatre and Park rises up from the valley floor of San Diegos East County, aptly called, The Crown Jewel of East County. The Mount Helix Nature Theatre and Park has been inspiring residents of Southern California with its rugged beauty and scenic views since 1924. Perched atop Mt. Helix at an elevation of approximately 1300 feet, the historic park offers a spectacular 360-degree view of San Diego County. The park is open to the public 365 days a year.In addition to the park operations, the amphitheater is the site to free community programs, donation-based yoga classes, weddings and memorials, and the awe-inspiring Easter sunrise service. The Park receives no government funding, meaning the tens of thousands of visitors who use the park annually do so thanks to 100 percent funding by the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mt. Helix Nature Theatre.
